promql, tsdb (histograms): Do not re-use spans between histograms
When multiple points exist with the same native histogram schemas they
share their spans.
This causes a problem when a native histogram (NH) schema is modified (for example, during
a Sum) then the other NH's with the same spans are also modified. As such,
we should create a new Span for each NH. This will ensure NH's interfaces
are safe to use without considering the effect on other histograms.
At the moment this doesn't present itself as a problem because in all
aggregations and functions operating on native histograms they are copied
by the promql query engine first.

Iterator may share spans without copy, so we always have to make a copy
before modification - copy-on-write.

* chunkenc: allow missing empty buckets on histogram append
Allow appending to chunks when the histogram to be added is missing
some buckets, but the missing buckets are empty in the chunk.
For example bucket at index 5 is present in the chunk, but its value
is 0 and the new histogram doesn't have a bucket at index 5.
This fixes an issue of merging chunks where one chunk was recoded to
retroactively have some empty buckets in all the histograms and we are
merging in a histogram that doesn't have the empty bucket (because it
was not recoded yet).
The operation alters the histogram that is being added, however this has
already been the case when appending gauge histograms. Thus the test
TestHistogramSeriesToChunks in storage package is changed to explicitly
test what happened to the appended histogram - Compact(0) call is removed.
The new expandIntSpansAndBuckets and expandFloatSpansAndBuckets functions
are a merge of expandSpansForward and counterResetInAnyBucket and
counterResetInAnyFloatBucket.

Optimize histogram iterators
Histogram iterators allocate new objects in the AtHistogram and
AtFloatHistogram methods, which makes calculating rates over long
ranges expensive.
In #13215 we allowed an existing object to be reused
when converting an integer histogram to a float histogram. This commit follows
the same idea and allows injecting an existing object in the AtHistogram and
AtFloatHistogram methods. When the injected value is nil, iterators allocate
new histograms, otherwise they populate and return the injected object.
The commit also adds a CopyTo method to Histogram and FloatHistogram which
is used in the BufferedIterator to overwrite items in the ring instead of making
new copies.
Note that a specialized HPoint pool is needed for all of this to work
(`matrixSelectorHPool`).

* Fix histogram append errors
We should check counterReset condition rather than okToAppend because if
there's a counter reset, okToAppend is always set to false.

* Fix handling of explicit counter reset header in histograms.
Explicit counter reset were being ignored.
Also there was no unit test coverage.
Add test case for the first sample in a chunk.

The code did not handle spans with 0 length properly.
Spans with length zero are now skipped in the comparison.
Span index check not done against length-1, since length is a unit32,
thus subtracting 1 leads to 2^32, not -1.
Fixes and unit tests for both integer and float histograms added.

We haven't updated golint-ci in our CI yet, but this commit prepares
for that.
There are a lot of new warnings, and it is mostly because the "revive"
linter got updated. I agree with most of the new warnings, mostly
around not naming unused function parameters (although it is justified
in some cases for documentation purposes – while things like mocks are
a good example where not naming the parameter is clearer).
I'm pretty upset about the "empty block" warning to include `for`
loops. It's such a common pattern to do something in the head of the
`for` loop and then have an empty block. There is still an open issue
about this: https://github.com/mgechev/revive/issues/810 I have
disabled "revive" altogether in files where empty blocks are used
excessively, and I have made the effort to add individual
`// nolint:revive` where empty blocks are used just once or twice.
It's borderline noisy, though, but let's go with it for now.
I should mention that none of the "empty block" warnings for `for`
loop bodies were legitimate.

This is a bit more conservative than we could be. As long as a chunk
isn't the first in a block, we can be pretty sure that the previous
chunk won't disappear. However, the incremental gain of returning
NotCounterReset in these cases is probably very small and might not be
worth the code complications.
Wwith this, we now also pay attention to an explicitly set counter
reset during ingestion. While the case doesn't show up in practice
yet, there could be scenarios where the metric source knows there was
a counter reset even if it might not be visible from the values in the
histogram. It is also useful for testing.

- Adjust doc comments to go1.19 style.
- Break down some overly long lines.
- Minor doc comment tweaks and fixes.
- Some renaming.
Some rationales for the last point:
I have renamed “interjections” into “inserts”, mostly because it is
shorter, and the word shows up a lot by now (and the concept is
cryptic enough to not obfuscate it even more with abbreviations).
I have also tried to find more descriptive naming for the “compare
spans” functions.

This is to check if a gauge histogram can be appended to the given chunk.
If not, it tells what changes to make to the chunk and the histogram
if possible.
